I used this tape to stain my staircase. I needed to protect my white spindles, as well as the white trim that connected to the bottom rail. I will say though, because I was using a stain, I wasn’t sure how well this tape was going to protect or how clean a line it was going to give, so I doubled up in most spots. I also used this tape to protect my carpet, because at the top of my staircase landing there is carpeting that butts up against the bottom rail that also needed to be stained. So I doubled up with this painters tape and not one drop of stain got on my carpet. When I was done staining (2 coats plus 1 topcoat of polyurethane), the tape pulled up without any issues and provided very clean lines. I didn’t have any issues for those few areas where I didn’t double up, too, so I was very pleased with that. Very reliable tape for my project!

I thought I ordered automotive tape because that's what I typed into the search engine. One click led to another and apparently I bought painter's tape, whoops! But is there even a difference?

This roll was used for taping off rubber and vinyl trim on my car for compounding and polishing. It is labeled painter's tape, and I noticed that if the tape was left on for a couple hours, specifically on the clearcoating of my car's paint, it left a very fine line of adhesive. This was easily buffed out with a microfiber cloth and even then I was using a polishing compound anyway, so it was gone quick. Just thought I would note that.

This is some wide tape! Close to 2" wide tape is giant for exterior car trim!

This tape is the one I go to whenever I need to hold something for a short time. I like how easy it is to use and see. I had placed a motion sensor bulb into our overhead light in the hall so we wouldn't have to turn the light on and off every time we went to/from the garage. However we had become use to using the switch, so to break that habit I put a 4 inch strip over the switches. Yes, easy to see and soon we may remove that tape. I also use it to tape down my soldering iron power line so the weight of the switch and wire won't pull it off the table. It's also handy to tape close small containers so the parts don't spill when stored.

This is the wider size of Scotch blue painters tape. I use it to prepare wood for scroll work as the smaller size tapes require too much effort. I have found that covering both sides of the workpiece with blue tape, followed by the pattern covered by clear plastic wrapping tape, eliminates virtually all burning and the melted glue provides enough lubricant to reduce blade fatigue and prolong blade life. This size of blue tape is the "sweet spot" between the inexpensive narrower tapes and the outrageously expensive 6" wide tapes. I used to buy the 1.88" wide tape in bulk which was much less expensive, but it stretched my patience too thin. Incidentally, I use this on wood puzzles and medium-detail fretwork.

As painters tapes go, 3M is the tape to get. There is painter's tape at half the price, but it doesn't seem to stick well. This blue tape stuck well when we needed it to and peeled off without damaging any paint.

We did find the packaging a little bit hard to open with out using a knife, but that's not a big deal. Overall, it seems like a great product.

This also works well for 3D printing. However, to avoid creases in the bottom of the print, I recommend getting the wider tape. They have a 1.88 inch version. The wider tape allows for faster application to your print bed as well as less creases in the bottom of your 3D print.

My only gripe about this tape is that it's twice the price. It works great though.

I have used this tape for over ten years around my home, studio and my kitchen. The tape does not leave a sticky residue behind when I use it to tape fine drawing paper to a board, attach a canvas to a frame to check how it looks as I'm going along on a painting project, block off areas on a watercolor painting, label glass milk bottles in my refrigerator, large glass containers in my pantry and of course it can be used to tape off walls, around door frames or any place you want to protect while painting trim in your home. I've also used it to tape off large areas when stenciling squares, diamonds or anywhere you need to protect a straight edge while doing canvas rugs. Great tape!

My only caveat I would give about the tape being used when painting trim is to attach it where you want and then use a burnishing tool or firm edge like a fingernail and rub along the edge you DO NOT want paint to seep under. Brush paint away from the edge as much as possible or you can have seeping. Tape comes up later without a problem and many times can be reused.

I always have many rolls of this around my home but have found it harder to find in my areas recently so I came to Amazon and guess what - the tape I love to use and for less money! I'm happy!

I have used this painting tape for years. It works well for many painting projects.

RECOMMENDATIONS* Test a small area before using. I've had this tape strip the paint off previously painted surfaces.* For best result, remove this painter's tape as soon as the paint is reasonably dry.* Always remove the tape by pulling it out and away of the painted surface.* This painter's tape provides the best results when applied to SMOOTH surfaces.

NOTE ON PAINTING WALLS WITH BASEBOARDSThis painters tape works very well when painting walls with baseboards IF the baseboards are snug against the wall. It is not suitable to use this painters tape on baseboards that are NOT snug against the wall due to wavy walls or because the wall is moderately textured. In these cases, paint tends to collect between the taped baseboard and the wall leaving unsightly blobs of paint. It is best to use a paint edger in these situations.

SUMMARY THOUGHTSWhile this painter's tape works well for many painting projects; it isn't suitable for ALL projects. It is best used on smooth surfaces. Like any tool, know its intended use and its limitations.
